I noticed that there was a large ad for the V710 in today's Wall Street Journal. When I checked HoFo after I got home, someone had scanned the advertisement and posted it. Check out this thread:

I would say that we will be seeing that phone quite soon. 😉

That is a pretty expensive piece of color advertising in the WSJ. I can't imagine Motorola running that ad without the knowledge that the phone is on it's way quite soon. I spoke to a salesperson at a San Francisco VZW store this last weekend and he knew about the phone and enthusiastically said "Within two weeks! I have been waiting for one myself!" Looks like he may be right. 🙂

That is very true. Advertising well before a product comes out hardly ever happens because it is just stupid. If you advertise for a product then people want to go buy it. If you advertise for a product that isn't out then people will go into the store and get mad because they can't buy it. Prerelease advertising is usually done right before the product is released. I would guess that the phone will come out in the next two weeks unless Motorola is completely retarded....

Most of the predictions I've seen on hofo regarding this ad ALSO predicted a July 1 release. Specifically, there was one last week from a guy who does seem to actually have some real knowledge of the situation, who was very careful not to mention the super-top-secret v710... but he was talking about how everyone would be real excited to see the vx7000 released on 7/1/04.

Of course the super-top-secret code was the bolded section of the date. May also explain why some markets cho...
